sweet iphone apps

I'm not talking about the ones that fling birds out of slingshots, or that repeat everything you say, in the voice of a 4-year-old child. I'm talking about apps that are actually really good. Really sweet.
Here's a list of some I've come across and that I actually think make life, and the environment sweeter, and greener.

Dirty Dozen
Sometimes it's hard to find (and afford) all organic fruit and veg each and every week. This handy little checklist names and shames fruit and veggies that you should always aim to buy organically as they are most affected by nasty pesticides. It also goes over the ones that are not-so-nasty, meaning if you are stuck for choice, these are the ones that are safer to buy non-organically.

Good Guide
This one is mentioned on numerous blogs and websites, and with good reason.
It rates products on a scale of 'totally toxic' to 'good and green'.
You can search for your favourite products and see just how good or bad they are for your health, the environment and on society.

Go Green
Handy little tips on greener living each time you log on, like... 
'When you're in the market for a new computer, consider a laptop. It saves space, goes anywhere and uses five times less energy than desktop models'

'Instead of sending old rugs to the landfill, check with local animal shelters to see if they can use them. Old towels, blankets and sheets are also appreciated'

'Take your own reusable coffee mug each time you get coffee. Think of all the paper cups you'll prevent from ending up in landfills'

Ingredient Watch
I have just found this one - and I love it!
Look up hard-to-pronounce ingredients on personal care products and make-up. It not only shows you just how harmful it is to your health, but gives you other words that is can also be listed as.

I'm sure there's plenty of green, sweet apps out there. Have you found any good ones?
